RBM3

Chr X

RNA binding motif protein 3

Also known as: IS1-RNPL, RNPL

RBM3 encodes a cold-inducible RNA-binding protein that enhances global protein synthesis and reduces microRNA abundance. Mutations in this highly constrained gene (pLI 0.83, LOEUF 0.52) cause neurodevelopmental disorders, though the specific phenotypes and inheritance patterns associated with RBM3 variants are not well-established in the provided data.

Note: In-silico variant effect predictors (SIFT, PolyPhen, REVEL, CADD) may underestimate pathogenicity of missense variants in genes with GOF or DN mechanisms. Consider functional evidence and clinical context.
